We've been promised mirrors that deliver our daily dose of morning info for decades. This Smart Mirror brings this promise into the real world. Built by Google engineer Max Braun, it uses a two-way mirror, display panel, controller board, Amazon Fire TV Stick, and a few hundred lines of code to show you the time, date, weather, and a few headlines while you brush your teeth, shave, fix your hair, or whatever else you do in the bathroom each morning. It's still a work in progress, but it isn't hard to imagine this being an in-demand product in the near future.

No, Philips hasn't gotten into the bodybuilding supplement business. Instead, Philips Power Potion is an unassuming portable battery pack for keeping your gadgets charged up. By disguising a 3,000 mAh battery inside a fragrance bottle-shaped soft touch plastic housing, this clever power pack can supply an iPhone 6S Plus with one full charge, no outlet needed. There's an integrated Lightning connector in the top, a micro USB input, standard USB output, and LED power indicator in the bottom, and an aluminum ring around the top that matches the color of your phone.

Based around some sound-yet-obscure geometric laws regarding ellipses, the Loop Elliptical Pool Table lets you play a skillful game of pool on a smaller table and with only three balls. To play, you set the eight ball on a dot opposite the pocket, flanked by the yellow and red balls. The two players then shoot at one or the other colored balls, attempting to drop it, followed by the black ball. It looks easy, but when you realize that the game's all about indirect hits and using the angles of balls bounced off the rail, it becomes a far more formidable — and enjoyable — challenge.

Inspired by the timeless look of 007, the Mack Weldon Vesper Polo brings effortless style to your wardrobe. To pull it off, the company created a lightweight knit fabric that uses micro mesh to enhance breathability and high-end, fine-thread cotton for added comfort and a smoother look. The collar keeps its shape wash after wash, the chest pocket gives you a little added on-the-go storage and the modern tailored fit pairs well with everything from shorts to sport coats. Now available in four different colors to keep your look fresh and clean at all times.

Just in case you haven't been paying attention, there's a huge amount plastic floating around in our oceans. Parley for the Oceans intends to do something about it, and part of that includes repurposing the junk into useful products. Like the Adidas Ocean Plastic Concept Shoe. This prototype shoe has an upper made from ocean plastic content, as well as a 3D-printed midsole made from recycled polyester and gillnets. No word on when or if it will become a production item, but the sooner we get the trash out of our water, the better.

Despite the best efforts of forward-thinking carriers like Virgin and Emirates, air travel remains a hellish experience for most. Poppi is a concept airline created by Teague, an air travel design firm that's worked with Boeing since the mid 1940s, that would make a number of changes to benefit both the flyer and the airline alike. Gone are the space-hogging, time-wasting overhead bins, replaced by thin compartments for things like laptop bags and jackets that can speed up boarding times by over 70 percent while your checked baggage is stamped with an RFID tag to help you keep track of it. Middle seats would become sponsored affairs, with special gifts and perks awaiting those who book them, and the elbow-killing beverage carts are replaced by vending machines placed strategically throughout the cabin. For movie buffs, there's "cinema class" with a huge screen and blacked-out lights for a more enjoyable experience, and you could buy or sell your tickets, or even just swap seats, all from a user-friendly app. It's just an idea, for now, but with any luck you'll see some of these ideas in use by real-life airlines sooner rather than later.
